My Green Ikon (green is supposed to be bad luck) never met with any accidents in the 17 years it ran across Assam, Meghalaya, Delhi, U.P and Haryana. My dad's first car was an Ambassador mark-IV that fell into a canal when it was white! It was painted black after the accident and it never met with an accident again. Good luck or bad luck has nothing to do with the colour of your car. In so many years of ownership, your Hexa has faced what almost all cars in India have to undergo. The symptoms do not point to negativity caused by the colour of the car, they are just symptoms of driving in India! Here's what BHPian Sanidhya mukund had to say about the matter: And mine has been terrible since I brought home a black Hexa! But we are conditioned by our experiences in life. I think it’s time to do so now!ĭo dark cars (or any other objects) really attract negativity? I still feel it should not! I see so many well-maintained shiny black cars on the road. I am a person with spiritual/religious bend of mind but never have I installed a God’s Idol in any of my cars. Very recently I did a Bangalore-Pondy-Kanchipuram stretch and it was effortless. Any non-black colored one this time! But reading GTO’s advice + no real replacement for a Hexa in the current market is holding me back. Since the car is already 5 years old, my initial thought was to sell it and go for a new one. The last incident has ruined my belief system- it truly was a near miss for the couple on the scooty.Īm I thinking too much? I have started feeling that I and my car are indeed attracting these accidents and my family was right about the color. But I’m unable to take it off my head anymore. I have been brushing it aside since 2017. The rider apologized realizing it was his mistake, but I was shaken this time.Īpart from the parking incident which was my lapse of concentration, in none of the other incidents was I at fault. It would have been worse had they come down my wheels. On the same day when I was driving back home, a couple on MG Road took a sudden right turn without any signal and rammed into my car and fell down. In Jan 2023, again on my way to a temple, an OLA driver jumped the signal and rammed on the left side of my car.The buffalo got up, looked at me and ran away! This time I ended up with a damaged bonnet. In 2022, I was driving back home late in the evening at a forest stretch (Goa road again), and at a curve, I got blinded by the bright LEDs of an oncoming car and I ended up ramming into a herd of buffalos.I don’t know how she was trying to manoeuvre, but she damaged my fog lamp housing. In 2021, on my way to a temple, a lady riding a scooty with her 3 kids lost her balance and fell beside my car when I was waiting at a red signal.In 2020, I damaged my rear left arch while taking a left turn in my tight apartment parking.In 2019, I was driving to Goa and in one of the turns, a commercial vehicle driving rashly on my opposite side in the ghats brushed the right side of my bumper damaging the arch above my front wheel.In 2017, just 2 weeks after buying the car in Bangalore, I met with an accident! A tempo guy banged into my left rear door.I never gave too much importance to the superstition around colors and dates.īut here is a list of incidents involving my car from the time of buying. I felt no other color looked good on a huge car like Hexa. For them no matter what the shade, it’s just a Black Car. There were family objections to me choosing this shade. It’s a Ceramic Coated Grey Colored Beauty. I had not thought I would be ever writing this on Team-BHP, but here I am - forced by the sequence of events.
